Political Quotes

“and my colleagues, I want to speak tonight briefly about an incredible motion picture, ``Schindler's List.'' But before I do, I will ask unanimous consent to put in the Record an article from this week's USA Weekend. This has a multimillion circulation. It is an article by a gentleman who I think is the best movie critic in the United States, Michael Medved. He is as much a philosopher as he is a critic of films. Michael Medved writes an article entitled, ``It Is Safe To Go Back Into the Dark,'' meaning the darkness of movie theaters. He said that Monday's Oscars, which start in about 24 minutes, will ``showcase a welcome change at the movies, but there is a long way to go, a controversial critic argues.'' By Michael Medved. Now, of course, USA Weekend calls him controversial only because I guess he believes in the Mosaic law and the ethics upon which this country was built--Jewish/Christian ethics. He goes to synagogue and he has respect for the Christian tenets that grew out of Judaism. He is a hero to me. I want to put this into the Congressional Record, his great article.”
